Description Markus Armbruster 2015-05-07 15:35:03 UTC

Description of problem:
qmp_guest_file_seek() allocates memory for a GuestFileRead object
instead of the GuestFileSeek object it actually uses.  Harmless,
because the GuestFileRead is slightly larger.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.474.el6

How reproducible:
N/A (bug is latent)

Additional info:
Need to backport upstream commit 10b7c5dd0da1a92182e87f5fc1887d779ad1a9e8.
It applies cleanly.
